File Name: Wilbur Pickering New Testament with Notes

File Submitter: Ray_B

File Submitted: 29 Apr 2012

File Category: Bibles

Author: Wilbur Pickering
e-Sword Version: 9.x - 10.x

The commentary file "wpnt.cmtx" contains footnotes.

About the Translation

Both the translation and the notes are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD, being based on his edition of the Greek New Testament, according to the only significant line of transmission, both ancient and independent, that has a demonstrable archetypal form in all 27 books.

The Greek Text of which this is a translation, and articles explaining the preference, may be downloaded free from www.walkinhiscommandments.com.

The translation is quite similar to the NKJV, an excellent translation of a good Greek text. Since participial clauses are grammatically dependent, I tried to reflect that dependency. But I also tried to capture the atmosphere, while remaining faithful to the Text. The result may seem like a curious mixture of formal and idiomatic style.

About the Author

Wilbur N. Pickering is a Christian missionary in Valparaíso, Brazil. He has a ThM and a PhD in Linguistics. Of those actively involved in textual criticism, no one holds a more radical view in defense of the inerrancy and objective authority of the Sacred Text. This includes the position that the precise original wording has been preserved to our day and that we can know what it is.

I just want to say that I have downloaded a copy of this work and so far I like it. I have looked at some key scriptures and compared them to the KJV in some areas where the KJV is off in it's translation, this translation has not included the same errors. I did not realize until I read more carefully in your message text here, after my download that this translation was directly from the greek text. I very much like that. It appears to me after a limited amount of examination to be a valuable translation. I like how the footnotes are arranged and called out to reference in the commentary section.
Aside from what appears to be a fine translation, the module compilation also appears to be of a very high quality. This definitelty looks to me like it will be a real asset in my, or anyone elses for that matter, bible study sessions.
Many thanks for the hours of work that it takes to make such a high quality set of modules. Though it may seem thankless at times, please accept my thanks for your efforts for a job well done.
